Full marks Rob!
Yes, it's "The Other Meteorite Man" pictured on page 3 of Robert Haag's 1997
Field Guide. How it ended up being sold at auction in a "forced sale" on
behalf of the British government, I have no idea.

Here's the original picture that Lloyds sent me -

And here's the same image after a bit of manipulation with the graphics
software -

<< how much did it go for? >>

I won it and another 50.8kg individual http://fernlea.tripod.com/163.jpg at a
very good price, thanks to some poor quality original photography :-)

Cheers,
Rob.
